The Bundaberg Rum Professional Bull Riders National Finals 2008 is coming to Melbourne for the first time ever! . Come and experience all the thrills and spills of the one and only PBR! The world’s richest cowboys are about to descend upon Melbourne to battle it out against our finest to determine the 2008 Australian Champion!

Hisense Arena will shake to its foundations as it writhes under the weight of brutal 1000kg bulls, doing their damnedest to rid themselves of the wiry young cowboys on their backs. This is not a rodeo – this is the mother of all extreme sports wrapped up in a pulsating rock concert atmosphere. This is the one and only Professional Bull Riders. The inaugural Bundaberg Rum Professional Bull Riders National Finals is guaranteed to thrill you with heart stopping, pulse racing bull riding action on top of the meanest bucking bulls on the planet!

The Professional Bull Riders, Inc (PBR) is the USA powerhouse that turned rodeo’s resident favourite bull riding, into a standalone sport and bulleted it into the Top 10 of sport’s professional ranks there. At number seven and worth upward of US$125 million, more than 1.3 million ticket s are sold to PBR bull riding events in the USA and over 104 million watch PBR televised broadcasts around the world.

PBR Australia debuted in Australia last year at the inaugural Professional Bull Riders World Cup on the Gold Coast playing to sold out crowds and a huge local and international television audience. The PBR’s entry into Australia doesn’t just mean better bull rides, Hollywood-style production values, events that razzle dazzle and more prize money for the boys on the bulls. The PBR launching in Australia means, for the first time, money earned by our Aussie bull riders on Aussie bulls at Aussie bull riding events, will contribute to their international PBR standings and put them ahead to compete at the million dollar World Finals in Las Vegas.

Experienced Australian bull riders Brendon Clark and Greg Potter will return home from the US, competition-lean and boot-leather-tough, to lead the Aussie assault against a contingent of international superstars headed by world top 30 riders, Zack Brown and Austin Meier. This elite battalion of the world’s finest bull riders will do battle for a piece of the $50,000 prize money on offer, in a one night only, knock ‘em down, drag ‘em out war of attrition.
